The Simple Things In Life

Hello! I love to make shaped cards.....they are so fun and easy! I made this for a co-worker's birthday....she doesn't like to be "fussed over" on her birthday, so I kept it "simple" with very few "doo-dads"!

Today's Featured Stamper over at Splitcoast is Kathy Bradley aka 101Airborne ......check out her fabbie gallery HERE. I just loved this shaped card plus the blue and yellow color combination. I kept the color scheme, but used different dies. If you'd like to learn how to make shaped cards using cutting dies, check out the tutorial I wrote for Our Daily Bread designs HERE.

Well, this seems like a perfect card for someone who doesn't want to be fussed over, and yet you want to make a 'little' fuss. ;) THe details are what make this special: the shaped card, the pretty paper, the die cut sentiment which is sponged. So beautiful!

Thanks so much for playing with us at The Play Date Cafe this week. :)

Wow Angie, this is simply elegant!! I just love the shape and your choice of colors and papers. The yellow and blue is such a great combo!! I am sure your friend loves it!! Thanks for supporting and sharing your creation with the Shining the Light challenge my friend!! You are d bomb!!hugs,Chris

I had no idea how lovely that Spellbinders Die was. Straight onto my wishlist now thanks to your crafty self. Love the challenge colors as you have used them here. So Retro-riche! What a charming card.
